Josh Morgan is just about to turn 24, and he’ll spend the first couple months of his 25th year on this planet playing its greatest game in one of its greatest locations.
The Rangers’ infielder/catching prospect left for New Zealand on Sunday, where he and four other Rangers minor leaguers will play for the Auckland Tuatara of the Australian Baseball League. For Morgan, it’ll be his first regular game action in over a year, and he’s just as excited to get back on the field as he is to go to on what would otherwise be a pretty bomb destination package.
